Oct 10 05:02:02 The Tacks Collector ♥ 1 I clicked on this game because of the clever title/theme. I enjoyed it and appreciated it more after playing a couple times. I'm always a fan of games that have double jump, and slowdown was a really important mechanic for this game. Nice job.
Oct 10 05:10:49 8m 47s Invasive Spectral Projectiles ♥ 1 I ended up playing this game after seeing a few of your posts on the feed throughout the event. You clearly have a passion for game development, the artwork, the mechanics, the theme, etc. As with others, it's too hard for me, but it reminds me of Cuphead (which I also can't beat) and I think you executed it perfectly for the genre. If I ever get much better at this kind of game, I'm going to remember the creepy skeleton pirate thing and come back to this.
Oct 10 05:24:45 13m 56s Clean Line ♥ 0 You did a really nice job on the artwork and the animations. When I completed the first level, I was so excited when the whole thing slid down to reveal the level above. The level design was great too, the rocks where exactly where I wanted to put track, which made me plan around them. Can't wait to try the post-jam version too!
Oct 12 03:25:38 46h 00m Carrot Collector ♥ 1 Really nice job on making a well-rounded puzzle game. I like that there are new mechanics as the levels go on. I thought the last level was great after you fixed it. Nice work on this, and really impressive that it was done on TIC-80
Oct 12 04:10:29 44m 51s Pumpkin Jam ♥ 1 This is the first game I've playtested this compo that was Halloween themed, and it was really enjoyable. I saw the teaser you posted of the trees when developing and knew I had to check it out. Really nice entry for a compo. It reminded me of collecting gems in Spyro. I think playing with a trackpad was my downfall, so I might try again with a mouse to see if that makes it easier to control. Overall I love it.
Oct 12 04:17:05 6m 36s Super Sucker ♥ 2 This was such a well done, complete game. The graphics and audio are amazing. I love the animations when transitioning to a new area. I love that different areas have different color pallets. Seems like a great example of doing a few things really well vs a bunch of things poorly. Simple concept that was very satisfying to play.
Oct 12 04:26:16 9m 11s lone alien ♥ 1 When I saw this I realized how perfectly a UFO game fits the theme. Well done for that, and nice job making such a clean and easy to understand UX. I was able to figure out how to play really quickly. I love how the friends were sometimes easy to confuse, but very fair because they were in fact different. I saw something about 2-player support? Is that real or just something built into pico-8?
Oct 12 04:44:14 17m 58s Reap In Peace ♥ 0 This was great. I'll admit it took me an embarrassingly long time before I realized it was going to be an idle game, but it made me smile once I put it together. Nice upgrades. As with any idle game, it's always a guessing game how many more upgrades there are and how long you want to play. Nice job team!
Oct 12 19:27:35 14h 43m Glow below ♥ 2 My favorite part is the unique controls. I love that it really felt like paddling. I would second what others are saying and request a free-play mode where you can collect without a time limit. I love that the whirlpools push you away from them. And I like the lighting and coloring. Nice game!
Oct 13 04:11:31 8h 43m Key Master ♥ 1 Woah, I kept playing over and over thinking there were some that weren't possible, and I would run out of lives. Then I discovered there's a whole other tower with more cards to the left! Nice job, and excellent pixel art.
Oct 20 19:24:26 183h 12m Currency Collection Corvid ♥ 0 This was a nice, simple game with fun little animations. Great job doing audio for a first time game too! Most people skip that early on. I learned what "corvid" means, and now I feel like I know what the world looks like to a crow. Wish I had gold coins I could leave out for them.
Oct 20 19:39:03 14m 37s Attic Thrifter ♥ 1 This game gets bonus points for being one of a few that can suck me into the game and forget my surroundings, even if just for a few minutes. As others have said, the beauty of this game is in its completeness. Artwork, screen transition animations, musical sound effects, a menu screen, and easy to learn mechanics. I like that you can learn how things like how the rat and holes in the floor work with a little trial and error rather than being too verbose telling the user how they work. Nice game!
Oct 21 01:17:27 5h 38m Tiles Collector ♥ 0 This is the most unique game I have played, and I really like that it's a game inspired by your love for math and for computer science. Very quickly when playing, I immediately wanted to write a program to help me solve these puzzles. I love the color picker. I rarely see cool interfaces like this, it's always just a lot of buttons all over the screen, but you came up with an interface perfectly suited for how it was being used. I also like that the game was part of a bigger webpage with links to the source, the change log, etc. I hope that you get to share your puzzles even after the jam is over, and that someday a company like NYT wants to buy this game from you.
Oct 21 03:57:54 2h 40m LOOKING FOR THE GOOD STUFF ♥ 3 This was so satisfying trying to get back with it getting harder and harder to see. I love the randomness of the houses, the pros and cons of choosing upgrades, and of course, the charming art and music. And something about black and white plus orange was such a perfect color scheme. The swaying trees, the creepy sounds when you get too far away, all of this combined made the perfect game.
Oct 21 04:07:37 9m 43s Space Cleaner ♥ 1 I really like the ship's momentum. I played Outer Wilds a bit which has the same sort of outer space physics, but it made me so motion sick. This game is great because your perspective is fixed, which is much better when judging distance and relative position when making turns. And thanks for the arrow back to the station! Well done.
Oct 21 15:00:45 10h 53m Cryptozootography ♥ 4 This was great. I love that you move automatically, felt like a Disneyland ride. Best photo I got was the Dodo, but no bigfoot. Really clever idea and great execution. Something about the lighting and how the trees were 2D made it seem like a storybook too. Great game!
